Blue is my favorite color. Any shade: slate, cobalt, navy, sky, cerulean, denim, powder, midnight, steel... I happily welcome them all in my home. My dear friend and artist, Courtney, is currently working on a painting for me with many shades of blue and I cannot wait till it is finished to show you!

Thomas O'Brien has a book coming out and I cannot wait to see if after seeing these photos of his apartment. O'Brien is known for his classic, comfortable interiors with his combination of mid-century modern furnishings. We have a clock we picked up from his 'vintage' collection at Target a couple of years ago and everyone that comes to our house always asks where we got it from. He definitely exudes his 'warm modernism' trademark.
